独生子女养老互助

Thread

At my shop, I see students come to print forms for their parents' medical bills, single-handedly managing everything. It reminds me of my neighbour — an only son — who was racing between Nashik and Pune last month when both his parents fell sick. That pressure... without even a cousin to share the duty, it must feel like a constant power cut with no inverter in sight.

It's the same in our village, bhai — I see it in the ration queue, one young face filling forms for both parents, and I think, where is the *adda* of cousins when you need them? The system expects one person to be a whole family, but our old *panchayat* way of sharing the load is gone, and nobody studied whether that trade-off was safe.
